China beat Kazakhstan

China edge Kazakhstan in Women’s Rugby World Cup qualifier opener

31 July, 2019 in China, Kazakhstan, Womens Rugby, Asia Rugby Women’s Championship by Asia Rugby

China beat Kazakhstan 13-8 to take a five-point lead in the two-legged play-off doubling up as a Women’s Rugby World Cup 2021 qualifier.

As hosts of the play-off China got off to the perfect start with the 13-8 lead, despite trailing 5-3 at the end of the first-half at the Jiujiang Sports Centre.

Lock Aruzhan Kariyeva gave Kazakhstan the lead with a try in the 29th minute before fly-half Ming Chen put China on the score sheet with a penalty.

It was an error strewn performance from Kazakhstan versus a pioneering one from China and with the visitors down to 14 players for 20 minutes of the second-half, the hosts capitalised with two tries including one from replacement Xiao Dan Ma.

Kazakhstan’s full-back Aigerym Daurmnayeva scored a penalty in the second forty but China’s pressure continued and they now take confidence into Saturday’s second leg thanks to a late try courtesy of wing Wei Yan Wang

Having won the recent Asia Rugby Women’s Championship Division I title China are now facing Kazakhstan in the play-off to determine who will qualify for the 2020 Asia Rugby Women’s Championship.

Alongside Japan and Hong Kong the winner of that tournament will guarantee a place at the 2021 Women’s Rugby World Cup in New Zealand
